Chinese President Xi Jinping took center stage at the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Gyeongju, South Korea, calling for a united push toward ‘universally beneficial’ economic policies. With Gen Z and millennials driving global conversations, let’s break down his vision for an Asia-Pacific community that’s more Netflix-binge cohesive than divided. 🎯
Five Steps to Level Up the Asia-Pacific Game
💡 “We must resolutely advance regional economic integration… and make the pie of the Asia-Pacific cooperation bigger.”
🌱 “Green development is not an option, but a must.”
📱 “Bridging the digital divide is key to ensuring no economy is left offline.”
